Tom Pellereau and fiance Sarah Fawcus chat about his win on The Apprentice 2011, getting down on one knee and Lord Sugar. Speaking about his proposal, Tom reveals: "I booked my grandparents' holiday house in Cornwall. We walked up to the sand dunes and set up a barbecue. "I pretended to set up a camera to take photos but actually put it on record, then sat down, pulled out the box and then I asked her. She did a lot of girlie flapping and I had to say: "Is that actually a yes?"

Tom Pellereau says he proposed to his girlfriend in Cornwall, aww!

Sarah added: "The video is something to show the kids!" When asked whether Lord Sugar is a soft touch, Tom explained: "He is most definitely as he is on the show, but there are certain parts of his personality which don't come across as strongly as they could. "He's incredibly loyal. A lot of staff have worked for him for 30-plus years which shows what a straight-up, honest guy he is." Awwh sweet!
